Clonal hematopoiesis and its progression to myeloid neoplasms: insights into risk, biology, and therapeutic strategies.

Abstract excerpt

Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) is defined by the clonal expansion of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells harboring somatic mutations that confer a fitness advantage. CH is common with advancing age and becomes nearly ubiquitous in middle age. Although typically asymptomatic, CH is associated with an increased risk of hematologic malignancies particularly myeloid neoplasms (MN), diverse non-malignant conditions,...
